NPW of machine X = -110000 - 4500 * (P/A, 15%,12)
= -110000 - 4500 * 5.420619
= -134392.78
NPW of machine Y = -210000 - 1050 * (P/A, 15%,12) + 39000 * (P/F, 15%,12)
= -210000 - 1050 * 5.420619 + 39000 * 0.186907
= -208402.27
As Net present cost of X is less, it should be selected

i = 12% / 4 = 3% per quarter
t = 5 yrs = 5*4 = 20 quarters
Present value to be invested = 10000 * (P/F, 3%,20) = 10000 * 0.553676 = 5536.76

compare after 12 years ENGR 1110 Comparing Economic Alternatives Two machines are being considered for the same task. Machine A costs $18,000 new and is estimated to last 6 years. The cost to replace machine A after 6 years will be $23,000. Machine A will cost $1,200 per year to operate/maintain and it will have a trade-in (salvage) value of $1,500. Machine B costs $38,000 to buy, will last 12 years and will have a trade in value of $2,000....
1. An economic analysis is used to determine the profitability of a machine. Assume the minimum attractive rate of return (interest rate) is 3%. What is the present worth of this investment alternative? Initial cost = $11,000 Estimated life = 7 years Salvage value = 3,800 Annual maintenance cost = 475 Annual income = 1,800 Income gradient = 120 a.PW = $3,500 b.PW = $2,450 c.PW = $2,500 d.PW = $2,350

Exercise 2 A firm is considering which of two machines to install to reduce costs. Both machines have useful life of 5 years and no salvage value. Machine A costs 820.5 QAR and can be expected to result in 150 QAR savings first year increasing by 50 annually. Machine B costs 1,389 QAR and will provide savings of 300 QAR the first year increasing 50 QAR annually, making the second-year savings 350 QAR, the third-year savings 400 QAR and so...
Problem 5-1 (Algo) Analysis of alternatives (LO5-3, 5-8) Esquire Company needs to acquire a molding machine to be used in its manufacturing process. Two types of machines that would be appropriate are presently on the market. The company has determined the following: (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) Machine A could be purchased for $55,000. It will last 10 years...
REPLACEMENT ANALYSIS The Bigbee Bottling Company is contemplating the replacement of one of its bottling machines with a newer and more efficient one. The old machine has a book value of $600,000 and a remaining useful life of 5 years. The firm does not expect to realize any return from scrapping the old machine in 5 years, but it can sell it now to another firm in the industry for $235,000. The old machine is being depreciated by $120,000 per...
